For this project, I am showcasing Plotly used to compare different groups within the mtcars dataset. For this I will treat cylinders, engine shape (coded in vs variable) and transmission (coded in the am variable) in order to compare the result variable (mpg):

Handling factor variables

There are some considerations done while pre-processing the dataset:

First Boxplot: MPG vs. Number of Cylinders

Second Boxplot: MPG vs. Engine Shape

Third Boxplot: MPG vs. Transmission
